For several decades plants of this genus were considered part of the otherwise Asian genus Disporum. Studies of morphology and cytology, as well as genetic analysis, show these North American plants to be different from the Asian species, and in 1995 the two groups began to be recognized as distinct genera.[5][4] Prosartes included five species until 2010, when a sixth, Prosartes parvifolia, long considered a variant of Prosartes hookeri, or perhaps a hybrid, was acknowledged as a distinct species.[6]
These plants are rhizomatous herbs with bell-like pendent (hanging) flowers.[4]

Prosartes D.Don , es un pequeño género de plantas herbáceas, perennes y bulbosas pertenecientes a la familia Liliaceae. Prosartes se distribuye en América del Norte. Los estudios moleculares han determinado que las especies de cada continente forman clados separados, si bien el género es claramente monofilético.[1] Este género se ha dispuesto también en las familias Uvulariaceae y Convallariaceae.Другой контент может иметь иную лицензию.
